about reliable source
Hello,

I am Rudra and now I am going to tell you something that you don't know about truth between writer and reality. First of all you tell me Adolf Hitler is a good man or not I think your answer is absolutely Bad man but you read his book 'main Kamph'. About Adolf Hitler's opinion he was right and he was good man and also he was a volunteer of his country but you know what is the truth.

In shortly I only told you that different writers are have different thoughts and their different opinion about same topic and different topic.

In Wikipedia it is our duty to we add right truth and give a reality about our religion,cast ,country, .... etc and also give right detail about topics.

I hope you understand my thoughts and also understand what I am saying to you please help me to improve detail about topics and also give me a reason why I am not edit this page.

 * Hi Rudra, your change made no sense. You have left a sentence "dangling" and are effectively saying that the Dhedh are called Dhedh. I know that there are sometimes different opinions in reliable sources. When that happens, Wikipedia tries to show all of the differing opinions, not remove the ones we do not like. This is connected to our attitude towards neutrality in articles. - Sitush (talk) 20:33, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi, But what about the truth and reality. i told you that we are add correct and accurate detail not a supposition and illustrative detail. Why not we change and something wrong is removed in Wikipedia.it is our duty to remove wrong detail and give correct one.

Recent revert
This edit makes no sense. It uses arguably poor sources such as counterview.org and completely mangles statements that already existed, eg: by replacing a valid source for the view of Sujata Patel with two sources that bear no connection to that person. I don't think this is the first time this has happened here and I am also aware that we have had a bit of a problem with socks and/or meatpuppets. - Sitush (talk) 04:11, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Can we please have a discussion here. I am not opposed to amending the article but we need reliable sources that are properly cited (page numbers etc) and which are more than just lists of people. We should also avoid "snippet views" from Google Books because they lack context. While I realise that Google Books does not show the same content throughout the world, I have been using proxy servers to check recent additions and they appear to be limited views in India, the US etc as well as here in the UK. - Sitush (talk) 13:12, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

Dhed
First you have not information regarding dhed. This page information is not relavant.your bias is refecting in this information. You study the vankar community they belong to chahan rajput heredity. You are trying imposing the dhed words to vankars and other. I repuest you to study the chauhan Rajput first and make appropriate action to remove word of vankar in your Wikipedia.

Ajit Gadhvi (talk) 08:12, 21 November 2020 (UTC) In Gujarat, Dhedhs are considered as sub-caste of the scheduled caste called Chamars. Some of the other castes in which there are few exceptions of Dhedhs are Bawa(Dhedh) or Dhedh-Sadhu(Sadhu), Dhedh-Barot(Barot). They were involved in jobs like carrying away animal carcass and works related to leather, animal hides. The word dhedha has been derived from a Gujarati word dhayadavan, to drag. Dhedhs and Bhil community were closely associated being in similar profession and social status, as out-castes and were two suppressed communities of Gujarat. Bhangis, Chamars, Mahars, Malas, Madigas were some of the communities, who were contemptuously looked down upon as un-touchables.

103.48.105.8 (talk) 09:28, 21 November 2020 (UTC)Dhedhs or Dheds or Dhedhas are one of the scheduled castes of India. They were one of the out-caste and deprived class of Hindu society of India.

They were involved in jobs like carrying away animal carcass and works related to leather, animal hides. The word dhedha has been derived from a Gujarati word dhayadavan, to drag.

In Rajasthan, the community were called Dhedha and according to census of 1901 were identified as untouchables. In British India, in the Bahwalpur, who were called Chamars to east of Punjab. They ate flesh of dead animals and were considered as out-caste by Hindus, though they have Hindu names.

They have nine exogamous section : (1) Gandel (2) Baru-Pal (3) Sahdal (4) Sapune (5) Lilar (6) Bahmanian (7) Japal (8) Lakhale (9) Turke.

In Maharashtra, Mahars were considered a part of Dhedha community. However, after mass conversion of Mahar community from Hinduism to Buddhism, to avoid curse of untouchability, on foot-steps of Bhim Rao Ambedkar, they are now not to be called Dhedhas or even Mahars but Buddhists.

In Gujarat, Dhedhs are considered as sub-caste of the scheduled caste called Chamars. Some of the other castes in which there are few exceptions of Dhedhs are Bawa (Dhedh) or Dhedh-Sadhu (Sadhu), Dhedh-Barot ( Barot).

Dhedhs speak many languages, as per their area of living like Gujarati, Marathi, Rajasthani, Sindhi, Thar

In Kathiawar, the Nagasia Dhehds, once helped the Sarvaiyas to regain their villages of Hathnasi, Jesar and other territories. In recognition of their assistance the Sarvaiya Rajputs forgave Dhedhs from bham tax ( tax on skins of dead animals ) and tax was not levied on all Sarvaiya village till British ruled India.

Dhedhs and Bhil community were closely associated being in similar profession and social status, as out-castes and were two suppressed communities of Gujarat. Bhangis, Dhedhs, Chamars, Mahars, Malas, Madigas were some of the communities, who were contemptuously looked down upon as un-touchables.

Dhedh or Dherh was a term applied to any low caste people in Punjab although they were identified as separate tribe in Central Province in British India. Raidas was from Dhedh community and is said to have spoken that: even today all my kinsman as dhedhs cart carcasses, as they wander around Benaras.Unquote.

In South India, the Dhedhs caste were sometimes dharmakartas of Shiva temples. A census report noted that wealth is a very potent factor, both in the way of levelling down caste heights and filling up social depths....a wealthy member of the Dhedh caste is actually the Dharmakartha of a Siva temple in Southern India and a Sathani (Sattada Srivaisnava temple servant) becomes elevated into a Balija often in the course of a few years ; so also a Palli into a Mudaliar.

I agree Hayat mahir (talk) 08:26, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

I am going through many book of Indian author dhedh word mainly use for bhangi and chamar because they have been forcing to do
I am going through many book of Indian author dhedh word mainly use for bhangi and chamar because they have been forcing to do some low work. Vankar having occupation of waving cloth it's a precious business. 19th century industry revolution came in India, cloths are being made in factory because of vankar community financial status goes down. Now only in Gujarat they come in scheduled caste apart from that they considered as upper caste I think wikipedia need some little change this article. Hayat mahir (talk) 07:35, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

I recommend removing the line "This community is known as Patels" as this is not true. I am from the Dhedh caste, we have not and do not identify as Patels, those are the landlord community who we are often employed by. Panchanadikar, K. C., & Panchanadikar, J. (1976).
